\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{1}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-3}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-7}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a} \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{-(-3)\pm√((-3)^2-4(1)(-7))}{2(1)}\implies x=\cfrac{3\pm√(9+28)}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{3\pm√(37)}{2}
